The pandemic is a gigantic wake-up call for the education sector. TBH our system of schooling has been in crisis for a long while. Now, the glue that's been trying to hold it together is coming undone.
What is your reaction to this take of the education crisis?
Why Education Is About To Reach A Crisis Of Epic Proportions Almost half of teachers are thinking about leaving their jobs. Where does that leave America?

Coming in HOT this September.
Let me let you know what you won't do in my presence - infringe on the rights of children who learn or behave differently because of SYSTEMIC failures they did not create.
Our special education system is
B R O K E N.
The resources are not there. The support, training, and professional development are not always there.
And that is a WHOLE PROBLEM that we need to solve.
The solution, however, is NOT TO EXCLUDE students who may require more assistance in less restrictive settings because it is inconvenient to you (or your perception of inconvenience to other students).
Every child can learn and if you are truly committed to teaching the WHOLE CHILD you know that includes hard and soft skills like
✅ tolerance/acceptance
✅ empathy
✅ patience
✅ flexibility
✅ problem-solving
✅ collaboration
Every child (and adult) can benefit from learning + practicing these things. People come in all shapes, sizes, colors, beliefs, and abilities and we can be accepting and accommodating of their differences.
That is the foundation of education justice. If you want a just society you need to MODEL IT IN YOUR CLASSROOM.
